Sideboard


Hey everyone. After discovering frontier and the amazing budget brewing options available outside of Modern and Standard, I came up with this cool B/U zombies deck. I am very interested in hearing suggestions since I'm a relatively new player, but note that I won't update the list to be better optimized if it costs a lot more (#BudgetLife).

Also, the sideboard is a WIP and I would love suggestions for it.

The ultimate goal of this deck is to put a bunch of zombie creatures and tokens on the field, and beat down the opponent. Whenever your creatures die, you just bring them back from the graveyard to do it again. The focus is different than other aggro decks like Goblins or Burn, because rather than just trying to do fast damage, this deck is a bit more midrange and focuses on wearing down their defenses and depleting your opponent's control cards cards. It's not very hard to understand or to pilot.

Shoutout to u/Chimon on the frontier reddit for helping to refine the list quite a bit.

Here are some key inclusions:

Relentless Dead, Gisa and Geralf: Allow you to cast zombies from the graveyard, effectively giving you a board that revives itself.

Liliana, Heretical Healer  : Your hand size doesn't matter as much as your opponent's does when you have your revival mechanics going, she can pull more zombies out of your graveyard, and her -8 just makes your board regenerate itself infinitely, which should just win you the game.

Prized Amalgam: Whenever you resurrect one zombie, these dudes show up from your graveyard to be obnoxious and are really the most important thing to stick in your graveyard. If you can get one or two in early, it can seal the game there.

Cryptbreaker: Allows you to discard your higher cost revivable minions like Haunted Dead and Stitchwing Skaab

Key to the City: Makes one creature per turn unblockable, as well as putting you overpriced revivable minions into your gaveyard early. Also lets you draw, which is great because by turn 5 you usually won't have anything in your hand.
